Limited Run Games has revealed it'll be putting out physical versions of both Persona 3 Portable and Persona 4 Golden on PS4, with pre-orders available soon. Persona 3 Portable will be treated to three different versions, ranging from the standalone game to a $199.999 priced S.E.E.S. Edition that bundles in a 1:1 replica of the Evoker weapon, an armband, trading cards, and much more. Pre-orders open via Limited Run Games this Friday and will be until 12th November.

Actual release dates for either of the physical versions haven't been confirmed yet, and the boxed copy of Persona 4 Golden is yet to be detailed. More information will be shared soon, but you can still pre-order whatever Limited Run Games has planned from 27th October 2023.

Liam grew up with a PlayStation controller in his hands and a love for Metal Gear Solid. Nowadays, he's found playing the latest and greatest PS5 games as well as supporting Derby County. That last detail is his downfall.

I’ll get them when they pop up on Amazon or videogameplus

That’s a pretty terrible & overpriced special edition tbh.
SEGA did much better when they kept it in-house. Yakuza 6 is probably the best special edition I ever bought.

I don't like limited run games. I ordered Castlevania Requiem and arrived more than one year later...

Given the current state of the Embracea group I would rather not order anything in advance for delivery in the distant future from them.

No thanks.

I still have regular Persona 4 digitally for my Playstation 3 and I just bought Persona 4 Golden for my Switch Lite like a week ago or so recently

No thanks! still waiting on the PS5 versions, why do I have to be a second class citizen compared to Xbox?

Well, it's physical, but it's from Limited Run. Crap. Hopefully they make enough for demand.

@belmont "Products are typically not expected to ship until 4-6 months after the preorder window closes"

Physical version will be available over a year later than digital? Yuck.

For games as big as Persona, I don't see why this had to go to Limited Run. I hate buying from them but if needs must...

Limited Run Games are the worst. There was no need for this. There's always been a demand for physical editions of Persona games... Plus, there are a lot of better publishing partners Sega could've done this physical edition with. This is a no-buy for me.
